−

title PCBSD 8.1

−

root (hd0,1)

−

kernel /boot/loader

−

* '''Title:''' This will be the text that is shown in the boot menu and can be anything that makes sense to you.

+

−

* '''Root:''' The root of the partition containing PC-BSD. In the above example, PC-BSD is installed on the first hard disk (hd0) and on the first partition (,1). Start counting your hard disk from zero (e.g. disk 0 for the first hard disk, disk 1 for the second hard disk) and your partition from one (e.g. 1 for first partition on that disk, 2 for second partition, etc.)

−

* '''Kernel:''' Used to load the primary boot image. For FreeBSD and PC-BSD, always use /boot/loader.
